There was a video from way back with a military missile launch camerman from the 70's or 80's commenting on something his team picked up on their high speed cameras while filming a missile test launch at white sands...said an unidentified object swept into shot, very fast speed, and flew alongside the missile for a few seconds, then shot some kind of energy or beam weapon at the missile, then flew on by...the missile was disabled moment later. He remarked the thing that interacted with the missile flew so fast as to almost make the missile look like it was standing still...
Sounds very similar to what is going on in this clip......
Was that something like this?

However, your statements......Jesus.....I swear it seems most people when they step outside at night must be too busy looking at their feet and not the night sky......
But let me tell you, even the video that phage uploaded or the ones from the OP, none, i say again, none of them you can sea a star blink or planet.
I see no dark object. But you don't seem to understand that the actual failure occurred after the rocket had flown out of sight. The failure was in the third stage. The third stage fires about 6 minutes after launch, when the rocket is hundreds of miles downrange. In the video you can see the first stage separation occur at two minutes into the flight, about a minute after the star is seen. Nothing can be seen happening "two seconds before the failure" because the failure does not appear in the video. What we see in the video is a rocket behaving normally, just like the one in the video I posted earlier.
Yet, somehow, one of those videos two seconds before the failure, we can see a DARK object

This is the best video I could find:
Something obviously hit the rocket, it explodes exactly as the object passes it, there's no way in hell that's a star. It may have possibly been a meteorite, but the chances of that happening are absolutely astronomical and there are more probable explanations. This rocket was apparently carrying one of the most advanced satellites ever made by Russia, it's not a stretch of the mind to think it may have been shot down by someone who didn't want to let it get into orbit. All the evidence is pointing exactly that way. In fact it's more rational to assume it was shot down then to assume it was struck by a meteorite, if you want to go by probabilities alone. And the fact that this is the second time they've failed to get a satellite like this into space just adds to the suspicious nature of this rocket failure. Someone obviously doesn't want Russia to get this satellite into space.
But you don't seem to understand that the actual failure occurred after the rocket had flown out of sight.

I don't think some of you understand how these rockets operate....or physics, for that matter. The failure in fact happened after the rocket was not in view. The imaginary "hit" you people are seeing, would have destroyed it at the speeds it was traveling. Angle and velocity are crucial in order for a rocket like this to escape the gravitational pull and get into a steady orbit.....this imaginary "hit" would not have caused a delayed reaction or malfunction, but would have nudged it enough to bring it down right then and there, if not completely obliterate it. Please use common sense. There's no UFO, folks.

For example, if someone were to chuck a live grenade through your bedroom window, unless you are actually touching the grenade, you have Nothing to worry about.

Are you serious?
If you are even in close proximity to the detonation of a grenade you risk anything from serious to critical injury or even death. I'll tell you what....let's test your theory by having me throw one at you in your immediate vicinity and let's see what happens.

He is being sarcastic.
